Sean Dyche says Burnley are getting back to where they need to be

Sean Dyche feels his Burnley side are finally getting back to where they need to be, following two consecutive wins.
The Clarets boss admits getting points is the most important thing, and finding new ways to win games intrigues him.
Recent Premier League victories over Bournemouth and Cardiff have helped Burnley get back on track following a difficult start to the season, which began with elimination from Europe.
Speaking ahead of his side's upcoming clash with Huddersfield, Dyche told Sky Sports his side have had to stick to their values and fight for the points.
"I don't think your belief goes away, it's stretched because you're not getting a win. You hear voices saying about the development of the players but the obvious one is you've got to win when you're a manager, that's the job.
"Finding ways to win I've always been intrigued with. We've found two ways to win in the last two Premier League games at a time when we needed them wins.
"One was a good performance and one was a fighting performance but the biggest thing of all is winning - eventually that is what it is about, fans enjoy it, the players enjoy it, the league looks better and we're getting back to somewhere we want to be.
"I think there's still work to be done, but the players are finding that clarity. This idea of a hangover success, when you have got there what is the fight that got you there? Is it softer then? Is it still there?
"Slowly but surely that feeling is coming back, the feeling to challenge, to work, to do all the things you have to do to win games in the Premier League.
"Some weeks you can play very well but some weeks you have to fight."
Dyche also confirmed summer signing Ben Gibson may make his return from injury during the upcoming international break, and appear for the Clarets in a reserve game.
Defender James Tarkowski - who was included in Gareth Southgate's recent England squad - remains a doubt for Saturday's game, while Robbie Brady has a minor hamstring concern.
